“I had a great experience with Southwest Lending Closet and I am so glad that someone took the time to tell me about them a few months back . I had an ankle injury (that I am still recovering from) and had tried crutches, a walker, and a walker with wheels and seat and they were all so hard and tiring for me. I would have to stop and sit down. I was able to borrow a knee scooter from SLC and it made such a huge difference . I got it the day before leaving out of town for my husband’s birthday trip and I would not have been able to do anything without the knee scooter. They were very busy and had lots of people but the staff was quick and I did not have to wait long. They were very nice as well. After the 3 months that it was loaned to me, I still needed the knee scooter and was in the process of seeing if I could get one from my insurance company. SLC loaned it to me for an extra month while I got a new one from my insurance , which I was able to do. I am so thankful to SLC and have been able to recommend them to someone else who was also helped. Thank you Southwest Lending Closet !!!”

“Was in town for NASCAR this weekend.
Stopped by the Legion for a drink around 5pm on Sunday 11/2/2025
Just wanted to give a shout out to Faye working behind the bar. She was so sweet, friendly and giving with an amazing personality. It was like she knew me forever. I wanted to order a sandwich but she said the kitchen closed at 4pm. She offered me a slice of her pizza because she knew I was hungry. What a great person she is. Thank you Faye”

“Acacia No. 42 is Arizona's premier lodge where gentlemen and scholars of all walks of life go to cohabitate and share ideas on the mysteries of life. The building doesn't look like much from the outside however once you walk into the lodge room, your are transported in time to a space out of the Renaissance period.”

“Nice lodge. Great members and organization! Very welcoming group and nice place to go relax. Small outdoor area as well as nice hall to enjoy. Worth stopping by to say hi and have a drink. No doubt you'll enjoy your visit!”
